ASBESTOS TESTING SERVICESOur proactive asbestos testing services are another way to ensure the safety and health of your home and family.

In general, the greater the exposure to asbestos, the greater the chance of developing harmful health effects.

ASBESTOS FACTSExposure to high levels of asbestos fibers can lead to an increased risk of lung cancer in the forms of mesothelioma, which is a cancer of the lining of the chest and the abdominal cavity, and asbestosis, in which the lungs become scarred with fibrous tissue.
People who get asbestosis have usually been exposed to high levels of asbestos for a long time. The symptoms of these diseases do not usually appear until about 20 to 30 years after the first exposure to asbestos. If disturbed, asbestos material may release asbestos fibres, which can be inhaled into the lungs. The fibers can remain there for a long time, increasing the risk of disease. Asbestos material that would crumble easily if handled, or that has been sawed, scraped, or sanded into a powder, is more likely to create a health hazard. 
ASBESTOS INVESTIGATION IS CRITICALA proper asbestos investigation conducted by 360 Inspection Services, is the only way to know if your home contains asbestos materials that may put you or your family at risk.
Most products made today do not contain asbestos. Those few products made which still contain asbestos that could be inhaled are required to be labeled as such. However, until the 1970's, many types of building products and insulation materials used in homes contained asbestos. If your home was built prior to 1980, it is a good idea to have 360 Inspection Services thoroughly inspect your home and perform asbestos testing for any suspected materials.

ASBESTOS AND HOME SALESIt's common knowledge that when the word asbestos is mentioned homebuyers and renters are immediately concerned.
Because real estate sales happen quickly, there is often little time to deal with asbestos mitigation if it is found in your home. The best thing to do is to perform asbestos testing NOW and save the results in case the buyer is interested in them. Fix a problem if it exists so it won't complicate your home sale, which more often than not, means removing all asbestos-containing materials from your home.
